Intro
The Markets Team sits at the intersection of institutional asset issuance and onchain liquidity operations within the M0 ecosystem. The team operates the infrastructure that transforms real-world collateral, such as U.S. Treasuries or tokenized money market funds, into M0-powered stablecoins: programmable, composable digital dollars used by builders across DeFi and beyond. The team operates and grows M0's liquidity orchestartion layer and partner flows across the growing network of issuers and stablecoin partners. The Markets Team is a critical bridge between institutional-grade financial infrastructure and the onchain economy and is now scaling into the future.
About the Role
This is a hands-on operations role with a strong emphasis on governance, risk, and compliance. You’ll manage core workflows from minting and redemption to onboarding, reconciliations, and AML operations, while building the structures that ensure MXON operates with institutional rigor and audit and licensing readiness.
You’ll join at a formative stage where your ideas and systems design will directly shape next-generation financial infrastructure. We’re looking for someone who combines the discipline of traditional finance with the agility of digital assets, and who thrives on bringing structure to dynamic environments.
